Mr. Abernathy purchased a selection of wrenches for his shop. The total cost was $78. He bought the same number of $1.50 and $2.

50 wrenches, and half that many $4 wrenches. The number of $3 wrenches was one more than the number of $4 wrenches. How many of each did he purchase?

78 = 1.50x + 2.50x + 4(x/2)) + 3((x/2) + 1))
78 = 4x + 4(x/2) + 3((x/2)+1)
78 = 4x + 2x + (3(x/2) + 3)
78 = 6x + 1.5x + 3
75 = 7.5x
10 = x
Mr. Abernathy bought 10 wrenches at $1.50, 10 wrenches at $2.50, 5 wrenches at $4, and 6 wrenches at $3.

In two or more complete sentences, explain whether the sequence is finite or infinite. Describe the pattern in the sequence if i
levacccp [35]
The sequence is given as follow
3a,3 a^{2}b,3 a^{3} b^{2} , 3 a^{4} b^{3}

When finding the pattern of a sequence, we can try to work out whether there is a common difference or a common ratio between each term. We try by finding a common ratio

\frac{3 a^{2}b }{3a} =ab
\frac{3 a^{3 b^{2} } }{3 a^{2}b }=ab
\frac{3 a^{4} b^{3} }{3 a^{3} b^{2} }=ab

The term to term rule is multiplied by ab

The 5^{th} term is given 3 a ^{4} b^{3}×ab=3 a^{5} b^{4}

The 6^{th} term is given by 3 a^{5} b^{4}×ab=3 a^{6}  b^{5}

On a coordinate plane, a dashed straight line with negative slope goes through (0, 1) and (2, negative 2). Everything to the lef
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

y

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line passes through (0,1) and (2,-2).

Equation of a straight line passing through two points (x1,y1) and (x2,y2)

is given by:

y-y_{1}=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}(x-x_{1})

y-1=\frac{-2-1}{2-0}(x-0)

y=-\frac{3}{2}x+1

Everything to the left of the line is shaded.

We have to visualize the graph:the straight line has a positive y-intercept and a negative slope.The graph is given in the attachment below.

From the figure we can see origin lies on the shaded region.Hence (0,0) should satisfy the inequality.

LHS=y=0

RHS=-\frac{3x}{2}+1=1\ (x=0)

LHS<RHS as 0<1

Hence , the inequality is:

y
